Hathaway, Thomas N. (S.)

Possibly T.S. Hathaway; daguerreian. In 1853-1854 Hathaway managed the gallery of A.W. Van Alstin at 197 Main Street, Worcester, Mass., while Van Alstin traveled the world. Apparently later in 1854 he was listed at the Union Block, in partnership with William N. Hathaway, his brother, and lived on Chatham Street. He was probably in business with his brother at the same location in 1855. Hathaway then operated as a photographer in Bath and Rochester, N.Y., before being listed from 1857 to 1860 as a daguerreian in Elmira, N.Y. There he operated the Chemung Ambrotype Gallery at 22 Lake Street, the Nicholas Building. In 1857 he advertised he had the exclusive right for ambrotypes in Chemung County. He lived on the west side of Conongue Street. In 1860 he was listed in partnership as Hathaway and Letts (J.S.) at 22 Lake Street. He sold his gallery in 1861 to A.P. Hart.

In 1854 he was listed in the Union Block, with his residence on Chatham Street. From 1855 to 1858 he was listed at 222 Main Street. In 1854 and 1855 he was in partnership with Thomas Hathaway. One source indicates he may have gone to California sometime prior to 1856. In 1860 he was listed as a daguerreian in Providence, R.I., at 10 Westminster Street. He boarded at Holbrook House. An alternate directory in 1852 listed him at 30 Purchase Street. Information corrected to November, 1997; © 1996, 1997 John S. Craig

Recorded as a daguerreian in Raleigh, N.C., 1851 to probably 1860 and later. In 1854, Havens formed a partnership with Oliver P. Copeland, a painter; the pair opened a studio on Fayetteville Street in the building of William J. and A.S. Lougee. The connection with T.J. Havens is unknown at this time. Probably the same as "Havens" listed without a first name, in Raleigh in 1851. Information corrected to November, 1997; © 1996, 1997 John S. Craig

Hawes, Albert F.

Also noted as Haws; daguerreian. In 1849 he was noted in Boston, Mass., then reported as a passenger on the ship Regula to California the same year. This is probably the same Albert F. Haws identified as a daguerreian in Taunton, Mass., from 1855 to 1859. There he was listed at 6 bank Exchange, with various residences. Apparently incorrectly spelled by one source, as he was a brother to Josiah J. Hawes. He was listed in Taunton until 1865. Information corrected to November, 1997; © 1996, 1997 John S. Craig

Hawes, Charles E.

Also recorded as Haines; daguerreian, New Bedford, Mass., 1845-1860. In 1845 he was listed at 105 Union Street, and boarded at Mansion House. From 1849 to 1852 he was listed at Liberty Hall, and boarded at City Hotel. In 1856 his gallery was listed at 50 Purchase Street, corner of William Street, and he boarded at Parker House. The listing remained the same in 1859. One source noted him incorrectly as "Haines". The 1852 directory notes him as "Howes." In 1852-1853 he was listed in business as Charles E. Hawes and Brothers; probably Jonathan and William Hawes. Another source dated his earliest image to 1843. This same source reported him in business with Ira Negus at the 50 Purchase St. address in 1856. Information corrected to November, 1997; © 1996, 1997 John S. Craig

Hawes, Jonathan

Listed with an ambrotype and photograph gallery, 424 Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington, D.C., 1858. He was listed in business as Crittenden (J.H.) and Hawes; the firm employed B.F. Jenney as principal artist. Information corrected to November, 1997; © 1996, 1997 John S. Craig

Hawes, Josiah Johnson

(1808-1911) Born in East Sudbury, Mass. (later called Wayland), he worked first as a carpenter and then as a self-taught artist, doing miniatures on ivory as well as portraits and landscapes in oil. He learned the daguerreian process in 1840, following a lecture by Gouraud, Daguerre's representative in the U.S., and possibly from Gouraud himself.

Hawes may have been in business with Somerby in Boston, Mass. as early as 1841. An advertising card notes "superior Colored daguerreotypes by Hawes and Somerby." The same source placed Hawes in partnership with A.S. Southworth (and probably Somerby and J. Pennell) as early as 1841. From 1844 to 1856 he was listed in business as Southworth and Hawes at 5-1/2 Tremont Row. From 1857 to 1860 the firm was listed at 19 Tremont Row. This was the same physical address on a renumbered street.

The pair was issued Patent #11,304 for taking daguerreotypes for stereoscopes, July 11, 1854. Hawes left the partnership in 1860, but continued to photograph until the turn of the century. He has also been noted as taking daguerreotypes as late as 1897. Information corrected to November, 1997; © 1996, 1997 John S. Craig

Hawes, William M.

Listed as a daguerreian in New Bedford, Mass., 1852-1853. Probably in business with brothers Jonathan and Charles E. as Charles E. Hawes and Brothers, Liberty Hall, Purchase Street. Probably the same William M. Hawes listed as ambrotypes and photographs in Fall River, Mass., from 1856 to 1860. A state directory listed him in Fall River in 1856 at 16 Market Square. A city directory listed him in 1857 in a partnership of Chace (A.) and Hawes, with his residence at 88 North Main Street. This was the same residence as that of Oliver Hawes of Hawes, Marvel and Davol, manufacturers of cotton machinery. Hawes was listed in 1859 with the same occupation, and lived at 6 Pond Street. Another source listed the partnership from 1856 to 1859, and corrected the spelling of the partner to Anthony Chase, not Chace. Information corrected to November, 1997; © 1996, 1997 John S. Craig

Hawk, Philip

Active as an ambrotypist in Logansport, Anderson, and Richmond, Ind. In 1858-1859 he was listed on Market Street in Logansport, Ind. In 1860-1861 he was listed as an ambrotypist in Anderson, Ind. This is also probably the same as Philip Hawk, listed as a daguerreian artist in 1860-1861 at 102 Main Street, Richmond, Ind. It is also probably the same P. Hawk who, in Hamilton, Ohio in 1869, claimed to have made the first photograph in the state of Indiana in 1855. Information corrected to November, 1997; © 1996, 1997 John S. Craig

Hawk, William W.

Listed as a daguerreian in Conneaut, Ohio, 1854-1868. Written on paper liner behind quarter-plate daguerreotype"Taken at Hawk's Rooms in Conneaut, Ohio June the 11th, 1854". He was active in Conneaut, 1854-1868. Information corrected to November, 1997; © 1996, 1997 John S. Craig

Hawkes, Benjamin Franklin

First listed as a daguerreian in 1849 at 2 Chelsea Street, Charlestown, Mass. From 1852 to 1854 he was listed in Boston, Mass. In 1852 he was listed at 113 Washington Street, and lived at 835 Washington Street. In 1853 and 1854 he was listed as a daguerreotypist without a business address, and lived at 119 Washington Street. In 1855 he was listed in Richmond, Va., at Whitehurst's Daguerreian Gallery, 77 Main Street, and boarded at the American Hotel. At some point in time, he was reported to have worked as Whitehurst's business agent; this was perhaps later than 1855. In 1858, he was listed in Baltimore, Md., over 205 Baltimore Street, with his residence at 94 West Fayette Street. In September, 1857, it was "rumored" Hawk(e)s was about to take over the stand formerly occupied by Whitehurst. This apparently happened. Information corrected to November, 1997; © 1996, 1997 John S.

Hawkes, George A.

Listed as a daguerreian on Main Street near State Street, Rockford, Ill., 1855-1856. It is possible that Hawkes may have also operated in the Winona County, Minn. area at some time. A scenic daguerreotype showing storefronts in a 1995 sales catalog; a search of business directories and census records turned up the particular group of store names in that Minnesota area.

Hawkins, Daniel W.

Hawkins, Ezekial C.

He reportedly opened his first daguerreian rooms in 1840 in Cincinnati, Ohio; he claimed later that his was the first gallery in the city, and the second in the United States. Another source indicated that Hawkins opened his rooms on August 27, 1841, opposite the Post Office, and in partnership as Hawkins and Todd.

In October, 1841, he moved his gallery to the corner of Main and Fourth Streets, over Mr. Luckey's store.

One source noted a partnership between Hawkins and Thomas Faris in 1843; although the partnership was not advertised until 1844. In 1844, Hawkins was first listed at a new location at 132 Fifth Street, between Vine and Race Streets. He advertised he had been in business three years, and offered stock for sale. From 1844 to 1849 he was noted as the partner of Faris, with their gallery on Fifth Street between Vine and Race Streets. An alternate source listed the gallery on Fifth between Main and Walnut Streets.

In December, 1845, Hawkins was listed as a daguerreian in New Orleans, La., at the corner of Canal Street and Exchange Place. The gallery continued to be listed in 1846.

In Cincinnati, in 1846, he was listed at 132 Fifth Street; the gallery was known as "Hawkins' Gallery of the Pioneers", and featured a display of Cincinnati city founders. In 1846, Hawkins advertised "photographic miniatures apres M. Daguerre... only place in the city where pictures are not reversed...".

From mid-December, 1847 until mid-January, 1848, a daguerreian named J.W. Young advertised in Evansville, Ind., as being "from the very popular Daguerreotype Gallery of Mr. Hawkins, of Cincinnati." At this point, it is unclear whether Young was there as an agent of Hawkins, or whether he was a former employe playing on Hawkins' name and fame.

From 1848 to 1852, Hawkins was listed in Cincinnati as a daguerreian in the Apollo building, northwest corner of Fifth and Walnut Streets; his residence was listed on Fourth Street near Park. He was apparently in business at his "Apollo Rooms" with John P. Hawkins, variously identified as his brother or his nephew. J.P. Hawkins first appears in the Cincinnati directories in 1849, and follows Ezekial's addresses until 1855. In 1849, the Faris and Hawkins partnership was dissolved; and Hawkins was reported to still have his gallery in New Orleans.

In 1850-1851, Hawkins' Cincinnati gallery was located at Fifth and Walnut Streets (Museum Building).

Sometime prior to September 1, 1851, Hawkins suffered a severe loss by fire in his gallery, and relocated to 168 Vine Street. He was listed there through 1854.

Circa October, 1852, he was reported to be taking "Solargraphs", a form of paper photographs. In 1853 he advertised as a "Solographist", and noted a gallery partnership as Hawkins and Mullin (cq.). In the same year, he exhibited images at the New York Crystal Palace, working with J.P. Hawkins and J. Mullen. In 1854 he advertised his "Daguerreotype and Solograph Gallery" in the James Building. Solographs, he said, were a new application of the daguerreotype.

In 1855, he was listed at 126 West Fourth Street (apparently the northwest corner of Race and Fourth Streets), with Hawkins and Mullen (cq.); again, it appears that J.P. Hawkins was involved in the partnership.

In 1856, Hawkins was listed as a photographic artist, with no business address. In March of the same year, he was a "guest operator" in the gallery of Dobyns (T.J.) and Harrington, 6 Camp Street, New Orleans, supervising the making of diaphanotypes, along with a Mr. Harding, an artist.

In 1857, he was listed as an artist in Cincinnati at the northwest corner of Fourth and Walnut Streets. In 1857-1858 he was listed in partnership as Faris (T.) and Hawkins at the same address.

In 1858, he was listed without an occupation; in 1859 as a photographist at 106 West Fourth Street, offering "heliographic Portraits" of which he claimed to be the inventor and patentee.

In 1860-1861, he was listed as a photographist at 20 West Fifth Street, Cincinnati.

Hawkins was also noted in Wheeling, West Virgina, at an unspecified date. Ezekial Hawkins was a brother of J.P. Hawkins and Thomas Hawkins. Information corrected to November, 1997; © 1996, 1997 John S. Craig

Hawkins, J.

Listed as a daguerreian in Petersburg, Ind., 1860-1861. Information corrected to November, 1997; © 1996, 1997 John S. Craig

Hawkins, John P.

Listed as a daguerreian in Cincinnati, Ohio, 1849-1855. In 1849 he was listed at the "Apollo Rooms", and boarded with E.C. Hawkins. He did not appear again until 1853, when he was listed as a daguerreian without a business address. It is probable (but not provable at this time) that this is the "Hawkins" noted as an itinerant daguerreian from Cincinnati who operated in Logansport, Ind. in 1850. His images were praised by the local newspaper in May of that year. In 1855 he was listed in partnership as Hawkins and Mullin (J.M.) at 126 West Fourth Street (the same address occupied by E.C. Hawkins). This is probably the same J.P. Hawkins listed as a "daguerreanist" in Milwaukee, Wisc. in 1856-1857. There he was listed at H.S. Brown's gallery. From 1857 to 1860 he was listed in Milwaukee as a daguerreian and photographic artist at 171 East Water Street. While not stating it specifically, this was C.M. Seely's gallery address. There are references that indicate J.P. Hawkins was either a brother or nephew of Ezekial C. Hawkins. Information corrected to November, 1997; © 1996, 1997 John S. Craig

Noted as a daguerreian, over Langley's Store, corner of Pearl and State Streets, next to Moore's Drug Store, Jackson, Miss., 1860.

Hesler, Alexander

(1823-1895) Born in Canada in July, 1823, he learned the daguerreotype process in 1847, and practiced it for two(?) years before moving to Galena, Ill. During part of this time, he may have been a daguerreian in Madison, Wisc.

One source reports Hesler as a daguerreian in Galena, Ill., in 1849; another reference reported Hesler arriving in Galena in 1850 and establishing a daguerreian gallery sometime between January and April, in rooms vacated by C. R. Gayetty, over the St. Louis store at the northwest corner of Main and Hill Streets.

In November, 1850, Hesler moved his gallery to Dubuque, Iowa, where he remained until March, 1851. There his gallery was located in the third story of the Glove Building. In April, Hesler returned to Galena, and was listed at rooms #7 and #8 over the St. Louis Store. In August, 1851, Hesler took daguerreotypes of Minnehaha Falls. Two of them were purchased by a George Sumner, who took them east and gave one to his brother, Charles Sumner. The images inspired Longfellow's poem, Hiawatha.

In 1851-1852, Hesler was also noted as a daguerreian in Moss Rio, Ill. In December, 1851, he opened a new Galena gallery at 90 Main Street. He remained there until the fall of 1854. In 1853, Hesler exhibited a daguerreian panorama of Galena and three views of St. Anthony Falls at the Crystal Palace exhibition (New York City). He received the first medal at the Exhibition.

In 1854, he was listed as a daguerreian on Main Street, Galena, and employed G.G. Johnson. His residence was listed on Branch Street. Hesler reportedly left Galena in November, 1854 for Chicago, but in 1855-1856, he was still listed as a daguerreian in Galena, in partnership as Hesler and Johnson (G.G.). In 1855-1856, Hesler advertised "every kind of daguerreotypes on silver and glass plates." He offered "stereoscope, or solid daguerreotypes;" and "photographs, or daguerreotypes, on paper, ivory and canvas".

From 1855 to 1860 Hesler was listed as a daguerreian at 22 Metropolitan Block, Chicago, with various residence addresses.

In 1856, he received first prize at the American Institute, New York for best daguerreotypes. The same year, he also received first prize at the Charitable Institution Fair, Boston, Mass., for daguerreotypes.

Circa 1872, he moved his studio from Chicago to Evanston, Ill., after the great fire. In 1880, he moved his studio back to Chicago. For some time it was located at the corner of Randolph and State Streets. In 1895 his studio was located at 147-153 Fifth Avenue, Chicago. Hesler died July 4, 1895, from apparent apoplexy.

Hewitt, John M. (1813-?)

Sometimes noted as "Hewett", he was the first daguerreian to be listed in the city of Louisville, Kentucky, in 1844. In that year, and into 1845, his gallery was listed on the south side of Market Street, between Third and Fourth Streets. Also in 1845, there was a Hewitt listed as a miniature painter at 461 Market Street, in partnership as Hewett and Wolford.

In 1845-1846, he was not listed in the Louisville directories.

Hewitt apparently began his association with T.J. Dobyns in 1848. In that year he was listed as a daguerreian over 477 Main Street, alternately noted in partnership as Hewitt & Dobyns. His gallery was known as the "National Daguerreian Gallery," and was located near Isaac Crombie's store. His reception room was reported to be 65x63 feet, and carpeted. He was listed in the same manner in 1849. Apparently, from 1848 until 1851, Hewitt employed N.B. Duff as a daguerreian. In early 1852, Duff opened his own gallery in Terre Haute, Ind., and noted his three-year association with Hewitt.

In 1850 Hewitt was listed at the same location, but there was no longer a mention of a partnership with Dobyns.

In 1851-1852, Hewitt was listed as a daguerreian at 449 Main St., still over Crombie's store, next to the Northern Bank. Possibly Hewitt and Crombie both moved to this new address. During this year, S.F. Brown was listed as proprietor of the gallery. The location was occupied first by John Plumbe, Jr., and then by Edwin Church, who was also associated with Dobyns.

In 1855-1856, Hewitt was listed without an occupation, and living on Green Street. Information corrected to July, 1998, 1997; © 1996, 1997 John S. Craig
